Lupe Fiasco plays it 'cool'
Issue date: 10/8/08 Section: News
Hip-hop artist Lupe Fiasco played a packed M.A.C. Center last night. James Mellyn, junior integrated health studies major, was blown away by the performance. "Whatever Kent State paid him wasn't enough. The combination of his high energy and personal interaction with the crowd made for the best show I can remember seeing."

Nobody was faulting anyone for writing an "article" (note: this is a video and an audio clip... nobody wrote anything but a headline). The video was fantastic. (Continued…)
